Vaico manufactures innovative, cost-effective seismic and suspension solutions that are simple to install, saving you both time and money.

With over 20 years’ industry experience, we design and manufacture systems that are not only cost-effective but easy to install and backed by local engineering expertise.

Our V.LOCK brace solutions have been trusted on construction sites across New Zealand, Australia and North America. Backed by first-hand experience from the Christchurch earthquakes, we designed our systems to meet industry and compliance standards.

Vaico also supports our partners with its very own Seismic Estimation Tool, which takes the guesswork out of quoting. It enables contractors to get a fast, accurate seismic number to carry into tenders, broken down into material and engineering costs.
